nope. not yet.
just finished the blinging of the mani this very morning.
got to make a gasket for the t'body and then see how I go about adapting the pipework from 63mm to the 84mm to the OD of the t'body. in joins which will cope with 2.2bar boost in race conditions.

Got some unwanted work to do on MrsB Lupo.. which has holed its sump!
Too frigging low as I told her at the time... but she insisted. Lucky me gets to replace it now.. (going to weld some ally plate as skid plate on the new one first tho... and it IS going up on the coilies like it or not)
All good fun!
